Cathedral

A cathedral (French cathédrale from Lat. cathedra, "seat" from the Greek kathedra (καθέδρα), seat, bench, from kata "down" + hedra seat, base, chair) is a Christian church which contains the seat of a bishop, thus serving as the central church of a diocese, conference, or episcopate. Although the word "cathedral" is sometimes loosely applied, churches with the function of "cathedral" occur specifically and only in those denominations with an episcopal hierarchy, such as the Roman Catholic, Anglican, Orthodox, and some Lutheran and Methodist churches.

Under the war-torn sodden skies 
Bleeding axes anguished lies 
Fight upon an earth that died 
Raped by corporate scythe 
Streets are red, Sun turned to grey 
Nature's beauty has decayed 
Swans lay dead on empty lakes 
Love oh man - Forsakes 

Fear his wrath as mans blood flows 
Innocence now no-one knows 
Rites of virtue we've disposed 
Heaven's doors solemnly closed 
Cities crumbled to the ground 
Deformed crosses mark the land 
Carnage lingers all around 
No refuge for the damned 

[Chorus] 
Eyes of death, look upon this earth 
Destroyed by mankind's curse 
Retribution, mutilation, desecrate, avenge 

Oppressive tyrants to him fall 
One by one he reaps their soul 
Tearing death from their control 
Elated by the rising toll 
Slaying masters and their laws 
Who destroyed our world with force 
Oro gives unto the poor swords 
To join him in this war 

[Chorus] 

Battlefield of charnel air 
Land, sea, earth now laid bare 
Morgue of solitude we share 
Shown no mercy for our prayers 
Laying down his bloody sword 
Oro leaves us our reward 
Silent vacuum, endless floor 
- Gone forever more 

[Chorus]
